Chapter 1366: Law of Survival
At this moment.
Irene and Sofia were having dinner together in a restaurant.
Compared to Irene, Sofia seemed calmer.
Irene looked at the time on her phone from time to time, and a worried look appeared on her face from time to time.
"Daughter, what's wrong with you?"
"Eat it quickly, or it won't taste good if it gets cold."
Sophia picked up a piece of meat and put it on Irene's plate.
Irene forced a smile, then nodded and began to eat.
Sophia put down her knife and fork and wiped her mouth with a tissue.
She looked at Erin and smiled.
"I know what you're worried about."
Sophia also checked the time on her wrist.
"At this time, Jiangbei should be almost at the border, right?"
"No matter which intersection it is, there are checkpoints."
"Even if Jiang Bei had wings, it would be hard for him to escape!"
Sophia smiled at Erin.
Irene looked at the other person nervously.
She didn't expect that Sophia knew her intentions from the beginning.
Irene hurried to Sophia and began to plead for Jiang Bei.
"Mom, let Jiang Bei leave!"
"I actually thought about letting him stay."
"But he has no interest in us at all."
"There's no point in forcing him to stay!"
"Mom, why not let him go back? He can still owe us a favor."
Sophia looked at Irene squatting in front of her and shook her head helplessly.
"Silly daughter, don't you understand yet?"
"You like him, but does he like you?"
"Even if you force yourself to have sex with him, you still can't keep him."
"In his own country, he has never been short of women around him."
"Jiang Bei is a person who is not worthy of trust and entrustment."
"Erin, when I catch Jiang Bei, I will force him to marry you."
"If he doesn't want to die, this is his only way to survive."
Erin shook her head and stood up.
"Mom, you won't be happy if you force someone."
"I can feel this. Jiang Bei's heart is not with me."
"Even if we get married, we can't be happy."
"Why not let him go?"
Sophia reached out and grabbed Irene, and her tone became fierce.
"You are such a coward!"
"From now on, you can only do what I tell you to do."
"Don't question anything I say."
"If you weren't my daughter, I would kill you if you let Jiang Bei go one day!"
"Erin, let me tell you now, the process is not important, the most important thing is the result!"
"Jiang Bei is a man who will avenge himself. Once he leaves, he will definitely come back for revenge one day."
"How are we going to deal with it then? Killing him now is to prevent future troubles."
"We'll catch him back later."
"Either you convince him to stay, or you kill him!"
"We must not let him return home!"
Irene looked at Sofia's angry expression.
Her eyes also revealed her fear of Sophia!
No, no!
My mother is not like that.
She is a gentle person, how could she become like this?
Irene couldn't believe it.
In the past, Sophia had always taken good care of Irene, asking about her well-being in various ways, showing only gentleness and consideration.
But now, Sophia has changed.
Becoming a stranger to Irene.
It became frightening to Irene.
"It's still early, we can wait slowly!"
Sophia stood up and walked to the window.
She looked at the tall buildings outside with a sinister smile on her face.
"Erin, what do you think the world outside is like?"
Irene looked out the window, confused.
She thought for a long time before she uttered a few words.
"Beautiful? Happy?"
"No, no, no, neither!"
Sophia smiled and shook her head.
"This world is filthy."
"From the moment humans appeared on Earth, the world has become synonymous with filth!"
"All the glamour and splendor cannot resist the disgusting stench that the whole world is emitting."
She turned back to Erin and continued.
"So, Mom wants to tell you."
"There are always more bad people than good people in this world!"
"If you want to avoid being hurt by others, it is not enough to just not hurt others."
"Instead, we have to think about how to get rid of the other party before he or she wants to hurt us."
"This is a world where the strong prey on the weak."
"If you want to survive, you must understand these principles."
"Only if you understand these, you will have the conditions to survive."
Sophia walked up to Irene and grabbed her hand.
"Mom hopes you can make a change."
"Instead of continuing to be so cowardly as you are now."
Irene shook off Sofia's hand.
She looked at Sophia with a sneer on her face.
"Change what? How?"
"Becoming as heartless as you are? Not knowing right from wrong?"
"Jiang Bei clearly helped us, but you wanted to put him to death."
"Mom, this is wrong. We shouldn't do wrong things."
Sophia looked at her hand that was shaken away and showed a dissatisfied expression to Irene.
"What's right? What's wrong?"
“Looking at the same problem from one angle will give you different answers!”
"We don't want to make the distinction between right and wrong so clear."
"Just know that what is good for you is right, that's all!"
"Erin, you're very smart!"
"Mom has always regarded you as my pride."
"But your actions in this matter have made Mom very unhappy."
Irene also spoke directly.
"Mom, I'm helping you."
"If people do too many bad things, they will be punished by God."
"God is watching us. We cannot force an explanation on something that is wrong and make it right."
"That's impossible, Mom. It's not too late to turn back."
"Let's just let Jiang Bei go back!"
"If he goes back, we can live a good life."
"You've always wanted the Brood, and now it's in your hands."
"Why are you still not satisfied?"
"Of course I'm not satisfied!"
Sophia suddenly yelled at Irene.
"Erin, you've never thought about things from your mother's perspective."
"Do you know how much grievance and torture I have suffered over the years?"
"These are not something a mother nest organization can repay."
"Besides, everything mom does is for you."
"Mom is old now. Sooner or later, she will retire."
"But if these things were handed over to you, how would you fight them with your weak character?"
"This world is a huge cage."
"For those who are trapped in it, the only way to survive is to pick up weapons and kill those who are against them!"
"This is the law of survival in this world!"
